Cultivation towards immortality, starting from being a fisherman-Chapter 134 - 106 How is this possible!_2
Chapter 134 -106 How is this possible!_2
However, the Nine Leaf Mountain Workshop seemed isolated and without aid.
With this waning strength, it’s feared they won’t hold out till the end!
“It was indeed correct to take risks to accumulate merit quickly.”
“This region is getting more and more dangerous. For now, it’s only the Nine Leaf Mountain Workshop, but as more and more foreign cultivators smell blood and come, someone will surely think even a mosquito leg is meat and quietly seek me out, the Inspector.”
Just as Su Ping was thinking this, his expression became strange.
It was then, as he stood up to prepare for fishing, that his divine sense, combined with a sweep from Spiritual Rats White and Grey, vaguely detected two cultivators hiding in Frost Moon Lake.
As Su Ping pretended to be unaware and slowly approached the lake,
the two cultivators lurking at the bottom of the lake were also discovered, both foreign cultivators who didn’t follow the traditional paths of the Immortal Sects and were at the Fourth Layer of Qi Cultivation.
Their cultivation techniques seemed to be related to the Water Series. They had been hidden at the bottom of the lake for quite some while, showing no signs of discomfort or suffocation.
Su Ping could guess that these two were most likely aware of the well-regarded Inspector of Golden Sparrow City, who also had a peculiarity for fishing.
Thus, they harbored the intention to ambush and had pre-emptively submerged themselves at the bottom of the lake.
If they had encountered a run-of-the-mill, middle-period Qi Cultivation Inspector who enjoyed fishing,
their chances of success in a surprise attack would have been quite high.
Only… now.
Su Ping sighed softly in his heart.
As a Fishing Man, he didn’t particularly enjoy such windfalls.
Why were these guys lining up to deliver themselves to his doorstep?
By now, Su Ping had reached the Ninth Layer of Qi Cultivation and Body Refining, which would make him a top-notch great cultivator even among the Outer Sect.
In times of peace, he could even have served as a Worship Elder in a small Immortal Cultivation Family like the Yun Family.
Su Ping sat in his usual spot and began to fish.
As the frequency of his fishing trips decreased,
the two assailants hidden in the lake no longer had a chance to surface.
His divine sense easily suppressed their five senses and his mana-infused fishing hook swiftly descended, binding their bodies.
With just a slight tug, not a bubble escaped.
The lives of two Fourth Layer Qi Cultivation cultivators ended under Su Ping’s fishing rod.
After calmly completing his fishing attempts, Su Ping pulled up the storage bag.
Well… fishing up a storage bag doesn’t count as an empty haul, does it?
Subsequently, Su Ping, not intending to wait for two accumulations, examined the contents of the storage bag during a break on his journey.
He was slightly shocked to discover that these two were part of a group heading to join the forces attacking the Nine Leaf Mountain Workshop after receiving the message of the siege.
These cultivators, along with those besieging the workshop, were from a Cultivator Alliance composed of over a dozen small sects from the Southern Desolate.
The leader was a True Disciple from one of those sects, with a respectable reputation within the alliance.
Hence, he could marshal many to assist him.
According to a letter those two hadn’t yet sent, which was intended for someone,
they considered their own cultivation too weak, which would not only leave them with little to gain but also burden them with arduous labor.
Thus, they planned to dawdle through the Mortal World, enjoying its scenic pleasures on their leisurely journey,
hoping that the recipient of the letter would help them delay their arrival.
Su Ping surmised that this was how they came to learn about the Inspector of Golden Sparrow City.
And they learned that this Inspector had slain several demon beasts!
As proper cultivators, they should not believe the rumors among the common folk.
However, they could guess that the Inspector probably had the good fortune to encounter either a young or a severely wounded demon beast.
Thus, overcome by greed, they meticulously researched and discovered the Inspector of Golden Sparrow City’s peculiar fishing habit.
And then… then they became his unwitting benefactors.
At the ocean surrounding the Mysterious Turtle Island,
Su Ping, transformed into the white-haired youth Yun Kong, sat on the back of Big Black Fish, cutting through the wind and waves, and also noticed the increasing number of fleets on the sea surface.
Among them, there were no small number of tower ships that could carry hundreds of people.
During this time, some cultivators on the tower ships spotted the white-haired youth and went on high alert.
Especially those equipped with detection magic artifacts, who, after discovering Yun Kong’s formidable late-period Qi Cultivation and Body Refining strength, became even more vigilant, with entire fleets coming to a halt.
Only after Su Ping rode away on Big Black Fish, disappearing over the horizon, did they dare to move on.
This gave Su Ping the illusion that he was a great expert himself.
Then, Su Ping realized that in these Overseas Islands, that was indeed the case!
Updated from freewёbnoνel.com.
Here, late-period Qi Cultivation was extremely rare, let alone someone at the Ninth Layer like him!
Su Ping had been to Mysterious Turtle Island several times before and was familiar with the area.
He had Big Black wait submerged at the shore,
and went directly to Heavenly Pond to fish.
This time he was lucky, having maxed out his fishing attempts previously at Frost Moon Lake and the Eastern District Reservoir, earning 140 experience points.
Though he had only one accumulation this time, he still managed to hit the maximum limit of 100 attempts,
bringing his experience value to:
[Current Fishing Level: 4 (1990/2000)]
Also, this visit to Mysterious Turtle Island rewarded Su Ping with a second Flowing Pattern Golden Dragon Fish that could enhance his divine sense.
Without hesitation, Su Ping ingested it.
His divine sense surged once again.
This time, everything within a hundred and fifty meters was as if within the palm of his hand,
and his distant sensing broke through five hundred meters!
Such strength of divine sense seemed to no longer be inferior to the everyday performances of those Foundation Establishers in Immortal Sect novels.
In his heart, Su Ping even began to entertain the thought of seeking advice from a Foundation Establisher.
He quickly dismissed the impulse, though,
deciding to wait until he learned divine skills and relied on Purification Spirit Medicine—which allowed him not to fear failure—to successfully establish his foundation without the need for Foundation Establishment Pills. Then, he would seek guidance.
